Title:
Select sound output from gnome-volume-control-applet menu
Status in GNOME media utilities:
New
Status in gnome-media package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-media
This is not a bug. Set it please to wishlist.
I've made some changes in gnome-media package for ease of switching
the sound output in cases where you have more than one sound output.
Now there is sub-menu in the gnome-volume-control-applet menu where
you can choose the current sound output. This is very useful if you
have a bluetooth headset. Menu will show up only when there is more
than one audio output devices.
I've contacted gnome-media maintainer Marc-André Lureau. He recommended me to
register it as a bug on bugzilla.gnome.org, which i did.
Bug:#593752

Also he said that this will not be in the 2.28 because it is in UI/string
freeze.
Maybe it is possible to get it into Ubuntu karmic?
Attached patch file with changes made. Just get gnome-media source
package, drop patch into package's debian/pathces directory and build
it.
